LOGAN PAYNE COMPANY DETROIT | Kresge Bldg. AND SMITH i NEW Y - Fifth Ave. Bldg. ; (Official City, State and County’ Newspaper) 6.00 6.00 PAYNE, BURNS ORK oa The Pennsylvania Primary A picture of political corruption that surpas: the activities of Newberry in his palmiest days is being presented to the nation through the hearings being conducted by the Senate Select Committee on Campaign Expenditures in the state of Pennsyl- vatia conérning the recent Pepper-Vare primary contest. j According to the testimony before this committce the whole primary organization throughout the state is “made to order for fraud” and presents, in the lavish expenditures of funds, an unlovely ture of the rotten side of polities at its worst. It seems a fatal mistake not to limit the amount that can be spent by primary candidates in their campaigns. Pennsylvania’s neighbor on the east. New Jersey, has such a restriction on the various candidates, and, while it may not have entirely erad- ieated the money evil in the primaries, it has cer- | tainly reduced it greatly. Of course, this is an expensive age. One cannot ! conduct a primary campaign on nothing any more | than we can still buy good butter at 15 cents 2! pound. Thus an unreasonable limit should not be placed on expenditures, But when we learn what was spent for the Pepper ticket in Pennsylvania’ primary we realize that it constitutes the expendi tue of more money than is conducive to honesty in any campaign, \ ! . Too Bad For Helen ~ Just as her chance, for which she had waited 4 year, was at hand, Helen Wills, American woman’s tennis champion, was stricken with appendicitis, and so she must pass up her greatly advertised match with Suzanne Lenglen, woman’s champion of ‘the world. The young California girl was beaten last year by Suzanne, not, however, before extending the French- woman to her best and exhibiting a pretty fine courage in the face of the odds against her. This ‘year, fortified with another year’s experi- ence, Helen felt ccnfident of taking the measure of the marvelous Suzanne. But she has just undergone ansoperation jn Paris, and it would be inadvisable, even in a girl of her marvelous physique, to attempt strenuous play for several months. It is too bad—both from the French viewpoint and the American. The French are good enough sports, and cgnfident encugh in the ability of Lenglen, to welcome any and all challengers. And all America did want to see “Little Poker Face” realize her am- bition. Se But another year is coming—and another year’s time should favor Helen more than Suzanne. The American is young, and her game is getting better, whereas the French girl, already well past the flap- | pey age, has reached her peak. d ' » Beings, Like Boats, Are Steered to : Prosperity—or Disaster i ‘Two sailboats are bowling along before a breeze. Yq may have seen two boats going in opposite di- tions. Yet only one wind is blowing. The force | that sends one boat to the.west just as surely sends! the other to the east. The direction of each boat depends or the manipulation of its sails and rudder. As you go through life you notice pecple you knew inéyour youth. The force that sends one on to pros- perity, just as surely sends the other to disrepute and perhaps prison. It is the same force.

Blood’s Stronger Than Water A bottle of good black ink is flung by a doughty congressional hand smack into the countenance of a lawyer. A glass of water—pure, clean, old-fash- H20, follows the blacker ink. Representative John E.

Good news for husbands who strip gears with all the celerity of younger blades who Charleston! “Back seat driving” on the part'of a wife is true and just cause for divorce. Precedent is established by the Supreme Court of California in the case of Harman versus Harman. Claud Harman, doughty locomotive engineer of San Francisco, stated that his wife Jessie did con- stantly opine from her back seat roost just how and when and why he should negotiate curves, the pass- ing ef other vehicles, and that she screamed when there was no due cause for said screaming. The lower court laughed and disposed of irate husband Herman’s plea, but the state supreme court gave him his divorce with a judicial verve and flair, to say nothing of fillip, which seemed to commend Harman highly as a benefactor to the race with his precedent.

Smart Men Only Yale University comes out now for an aristocracy of brai President Angell announces the general pelicy ‘definitely the limitation of the university’s best efforts to the best men.” The law school no longer will be open to all men graduated from reputable colleges, but will admit only men whom it may expect to make a mark of 65 to 73, or “Grade C.” Estimate of his mark will ‘be based on the applicant's college record, and a man who has failed in another law school will not be ad- mitted to Yale. This is a manifestation of the trend throughout higher education toward individualized instruction. The smaller and more intelligent the class, the high- er the quality of instruction and the greater the lee- way for independent work on the part of the student. A news dispatch says that Fred W.

He is a native Iowan, born in 1872, three years later than the Colonel, but not, like him, in the auspicious “Icg cabin.” He was a member of one or the other branch of the state legislature for ten years. Pres- ident Wilson appointed him United States District Attorney and then made him an Assistant Attorney General. He did his work so well that President Harding asked him to continue it, as he did for two years. He is said to be “a deep student of economics and public affairs.” strength, shown again and again, as a candidate.
